She’s lying for the same reason that you want to expose her lying, to try and escape the scrutiny of your parents. Your parents are really fucking you guys up if all they do is insult you for not achieving high marks, the best thing you can do is tell her that you know and actually support each other instead of fighting for your parents approval.

Man, when I was buying mine I strongly considered dropping $500 on a primo, top of the line, electric bidet. I'm a cheap bastard and I couldn't bring myself to click the checkout button. Now that I know how life changing bidets really are, my next will be a fully featured unit. They say you spend a third of your life on your bed and a third in your shoes but if you eat as much Mexican as I do that's at least a tenth on the toilet. Mite as well invest!

Did you check the ground outside? Maybe it fell out.

Don't feel bad about your grades in America. The schools here are pretty much just state subsidized day care.

I would ask that both of yo be placed in a private school where there would be greater interaction with staff where the feedback loop to your parents could be augmented.

You wouldn't have to do anything more.

The way you wrote this has me dying

This is something OP’s wife can do when she’s having low pain days! Search the local flyers, make a meal plan based on what’s on sale. I have experience being the pain wife and feeling useless but planning is possible and way more helpful than people realize.

One point shy of diagnosis at that point, but has anything gotten worse? It might be worth a reassessment

Not that easy to keep if unpredictable pain means she’s got unreliable attendance :/

‘Nice guy’ is a label for something else. Others in this thread have described it well

Yup! It’s depressing and the only way to keep living is to focus on the good, but that doesn’t help you with the doctor. I found myself downplaying my pain at the doctor (well, and I super dosed my pain meds to be able to function at the appointment) so I started keeping a pain diary. It is the most depressing and bleak shit I’ve ever done, but it got my doctor to take me seriously and look further into it.

I dunno if they are legit or not, all the reviews say they pay, I just signed up on clickworker. They pay through payoneer, which you can connect to PayPal with a little effort or I think you can get a debit card from Payoneer. Also, for a little pocket money I pay games on JustPlay. It actually does pay, it's the only one I've found that does. I can cash out once every 24 hours directly to PayPal- I'm not getting rich by any means, but if I play in my spare time I'm making like $10/week; also, there's no "use this link to sign up friends" crap, which i like. Every little bit helps. Inboxdollars too, but it takes a good bit of time. But you could both do these things and maybe at least get some cash for lunches and whatnot.

Also this is very inconsequential compared to the other things in this post but soda does not compare to coffee. It has a tiny fraction of caffeine per serving in comparison and all the sugar is going to offset anything you take in and make you crash harder

If you actually have web dev skills (education? certs?) , my company is fully remote and hiring with great benefits that starts the 1st of the following month. Msg me

What

That was more detail than anyone needed to know lol

This! Just be like “oh mum, dad, I found out you can check our reports online, I’ll show you how to do it on mine” and then even drop a subtle “I wonder if sister knew she could check this way, you should ask her” or similar

That’s really dark honestly. Did she actually overdose? I feel bad for her. I think it was a mistake to talk about things like suicide while you guys were coming up
